Create subview in UI Editor
-
Is it possible to create subviews in the UI Editor? If so, a) how and b) how would I name them? I basically want to create several "pop-up dialogs" to use in my app.
Thanks!

Create each sub view as it's own workflow and use the "Subworkflow" action to launch them on the press of a button.
Or you could make each menu as it's own Custom UI action, save them as a preset, and run that action by the press of a button (make sure they are popover UIs).
The only thing that isn't straightforward is the positioning of the pop-up dialog.
My resume creator shows how to do the custom UI thing

I'm also trying to get this working. As it is now, I have two popups, one of which is activated through the other and is essentially a 'page 2' of the first.
What I've done is added a 'next' button to the first page that has the following actions:
- close previous ui
- open new ui (page 2)
This works however it isn't not cosmetically pleasing.
I will probably need to resort to python to get things working smoothly.
